The Seven of Coins is an ode to Frederick Douglass' second autobiography, My Bondage and My Freedom. The “coins" are the blocks of printers' type that he plays with absentmindedly while he writes. The Seven of Coins is a card that means both hard work and assessing progress; the image suggests Douglass' break with the white abolitionists and creation of his own newspaper, The North Star.
